Mehrauli murder: Victim's liver, intestines disposed of first

After murdering his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar on May 18 and chopping up her body into 35 pieces, the accused Aftab Poonawalla first disposed of the liver and intestines after mincing it, sources said.

"During his interrogation, Aftab revealed that the liver and intestines were the first of the body parts that he disposed off in the forest areas of Chattarpur and Mehrauli in plastic bags," a source said.

After searching methods to cut up a body on Google, Aftab kept the victim's body under the shower in the bathroom so that it could be chopped easily.

"I am fond of watching crime series on TV and after watching them I came up with ideas on preserving the body parts and avoiding suspicions about her whereabouts. That's why I kept posting on her Instagram profile after the murder. I did it all by myself," the source said citing his confession.
